With an AI-Powered EHR, Sunoh.ai, and healow Patient Engagement, eCW is a One-Stop Solution for Small and Independent Practices
Personalized care is a hallmark of small and independent practices. Providers often are on a first-name basis with their patients and are aware of their medical histories. However, this personal touch comes with its own set of challenges. Small practices have fewer staff members. This puts physicians into multiple roles. Along with patient care, they handle administrative tasks and business operations. They may struggle to market themselves effectively to attract new patients. With limited resources, scaling is complicated. As patient numbers grow, tasks like scheduling, billing, and record-keeping can become overwhelming, leading to burnout. According to a 2019 survey, primary care providers (PCPs) report a 79% burnout score attributed to direct and indirect care. Smaller practices may also struggle to keep up with the rapid pace of technological advancements. These challenges can seem daunting. But with the right tools, such as eClinicalWorks® (eCW), an AI-powered multidimensional EHR – Sunoh.ai a natural AI scribe – and healow® patient engagement solutions, small and independent practices can streamline operations, effectively manage resources, and continue to provide personalized care while scaling their business.
